CGMA Finance Leadership Program

FLP with Astranti

Why do we believe the Astranti Finance Leadership Program is the best value way to study CIMA FLP?

We focus on simplifying complex topics to make learning easy and get people through their exams. We provide high-quality support, one of the market-leading case study courses, and an FLP library with every FLP topic from Foundational to Strategic level covered by videos, study texts, practice questions, or links to further reading.

And don’t just take our word for it. Students give us great feedback too! From over 600 reviews, we currently have an ‘Excellent’ rating on Trustpilot.

If you want an advanced CIMA FLP option, we believe studying with Astranti is a great way to combine the benefits of CIMA’s excellent FLP system in the learning phase with our renowned case study courses focused on getting you through your case study exams first time. Our CIMA/CGMA FLP course also comes with over 20 years of CIMA tuition and student support expertise to support you all the way.

We became the first Approved CGMA Finance Leadership Programme Provider in the UK after Kaplan, who produces CIMA’s Premium course. But we stand out, not just because of our courses, but also because we are the only provider to offer instalment plans for CIMA/CGMA FLP, allowing you to spread the cost of your studies!

“I used Astranti FLP and can absolutely vouch for their materials. They are written in plain English and are really engaging and easy to grasp. I passed my MCS on first attempt thanks to their materials, classes as well as their mock and preseen and industry analysis. I will highly recommend giving Astranti a try

Astranti FLP library

The FLP library gives you hundreds of hours of video, thousands of pages of study text and hundreds of practice questions to hone your skills to get you through your assessments. The idea is not that you read or work through everything here, but that you dip into our materials if you need further explanation while studying or if you fail an assessment and need more support.

  • Reading material taken from our Certificate level and Professional Qualification study texts to help clarify any concepts that you’re unsure of, or provide you with a broader understanding of the subject area.
  • Excerpts from our Certificate level and Professional Qualification video series to provide a video summary of the majority of the key FLP subjects.
  • Subject area practice questions to test your general understanding of each subject you study.
  • Topic assessment questions to prepare you for the topic assessments.
Live FLP webinars

The latest addition to Astranti FLP is our FLP webinar series. These monthly live webinars are designed to focus on the most challenging topics across the CIMA FLP syllabus, helping you gain a genuine understanding of even the most tricky subjects.
You’ll have access to:

  • At least one live webinar every month for the duration of your Astranti FLP subscription.
  • Our expert CIMA tutors in a live setting, with the opportunity to get the answers to your questions when you need them.
  • Our full FLP webinar library, with all previous webinar recordings available to watch whenever suits you best.

I used Astranti for all 3 CIMA Case Study exams – the material (pre-seen review, E3, P3 & F3 course revision, Mocks and industry analysis) was all really comprehensive. The support from Holly, Rikas and the team was amazing… it was a long journey for me and feel the support I received for the final case study got me over the line for sure. The Mock Feedback was probably the difference between a pass and a fail for me so would recommend that to anyone considering which package to purchase! Thank you
Dawn, April 2024

Astranti is one of the best online tuition providers which you can get. During my CIMA studies I bought 3 different products with them (case study, gateway and FLP). All of the products were is extremely informative and full of useful examples. In addition, the whole team is very approachable. I wouldn’t have pass my exams without them!

CIMA FLP Case Studies

CASE STUDY

Join our premium case study courses and get all the study materials, live sessions and support you need to pass.

Pre-seen analysis videos

It’s vital that you fully analyse your pre-seen. This requires a detailed examination of the case study ensuring that every section is fully understood.
Our pre-seen analysis videos provide a page-by-page analysis of every section of the pre-seen. It ensures you don’t miss anything important and helps to build a comprehensive understanding of the material. This is vital if you are to gain high marks in the exam. 

Strategic analysis

It’s extremely important that you have the ability to identify how the pre-seen relates to key models and theories from the syllabus. The examiners expect students to demonstrate a good understanding of the models and theories and make the appropriate links to the case study during the exam.
It can be hard to fully analyse a company using only recently learned models and be confident you’ve got it right. Our strategic analysis has done the hard work for you! 

Industry analysis

It’s critical to demonstrate to the examiner that you have fully understood the pre-seen industry, as a key element to gaining extra high marks in your case study exam.
Researching the industry can be a laborious process, so our team has spent hours doing this research for you! 

Top 10 most likely issues analysis

The top 10 issues identify the 10 most likely issues to appear in the exam. Our case study experts give guidance on how to deal with the issues in your answers and advise which models to use and key points you should raise.
Based on our experience of analysing CIMA case studies for over 10 years, our predictions have been extremely accurate in previous exams, with around 70-80% of topics in the real exams being covered in our top 10 lists. 

Mock exams and debrief videos

Five unique mock exams based on the current pre-seen written by our case study experts, as well as corresponding videos recorded by our tutors to analyse the mock exams and how best to approach them. (Seven mock exams are included if you complete the exam on the August or February exam sittings). 

Expert marking and feedback

Complete three marked mocks by the course deadlines and receive your grade along with tailored exam feedback from your assigned mock marker. Learn specifically what you need to do to pass the real thing. Our markers are then available to answer your questions on how to improve. 

Live online masterclasses

At three points on the course, our experienced case study tutors will guide you through the pre-seen, key theory and top exam tips to get you ready for your final exam, as well as being on hand to answer your questions.

Theory revision video series

We’ve looked at all the past exams and identified the most regularly examined topics at case study and provided you with study texts and revision videos to quickly revise all the key theory. 

Exam technique guide

Arguably the most important aspect of our case study course. This study text and video series show you the secrets of passing the case study exams – and they’re not about learning theory – it’s all about understanding what you need to do to get the markers to give you marks!

Dedicated ethics pack

Ethics is the most commonly examined topic in all three case study exams, so mastering it is cruical, and yet surprisingly difficult. Our ethics pack contains a text book, video and set of practice questions that will ensure you excel in the ethics questions in your exam. 

60 case study questions pack

We’ve taken 60 past exam questions and given them their own brief, tailored scenarios so you can do them without having to learn the relevant past pre-seens. This ensures you have all the question practice you need. These can be completed to get you up to speed prior to the preseen being released, or as extra practice when you’ve completed your mock exams . Each comes with a detailed solution in our recommended exam style. 

I have studied 3x case studies with Astranti and successfully passed them all at first try. Great support and study structure. Recommended.

Jon Brookes, April 2024

I’ve used Astranti for all my 3 Case Study exams and got a first time pass on each of them thanks to the support and material provided by Astranti. They give so much additional material to help you in your studies and I’m incredibly grateful to everyone there in helping me through my studies. I’ve already recommended them to several people I know in person and will continue to do so for anyone looking to take a case study, FLP route or operational tests!
Dan W, April 2024

Tutor & Mentor support

There are so many benefits to studying online, like flexibility, cost savings and the ability to study at your own pace.

However, there are often some challenges too, such as a lack of study structure, lots of distractions, limited accountability and a general feeling of isolation, which can all lead to reduced motivation and momentum!

For this reason, Astranti FLP gives you exclusive access to our tutors and course mentors.

Use our course discussion hubs to contact our expert CIMA tutors whenever you need help with a tricky piece of theory.

And, have regular check-ins with your own personal course mentor via email, video call or a combination of the two, to get help staying focused, hitting your deadlines and ensuring you have everything you need to progress and pass your case study exams.

We also launched our AI virtual tutors, which have been trained on our study texts, meaning they have all the knowledge needed to help with your queries, 24 hours a day. Whether it’s a quick knowledge check, a slightly different explanation of a tricky topic or an answer to a specific question, our AI tutors are there to help!

Astranti FLP Student, July 2023

“I had access to the premium course via the ‘Advanced FLP’ program which Astranti offers. This program gave me full access to the CIMA FLP portal as well as additional study and revision materials to support my learning of the FLP theory. I found these materials to be highly useful in providing clarity on various topic areas and increasing my understanding.”
